    To demonstrate, critic David Vanderwerken acknowledges that the most powerful of these inversions is the reversal of the relationship between father and son. According to Vanderwerken, the father will help the son make the transition from “dependence to independence” but in Night the “...roles are completely reversed; the son becomes the parent” (Vanderwerken 64). This transposal becomes extremely apparent upon Wiesel and his father’s arrival at Buchenwald. It is there that his father, already frail, completely breaks down; he speaks feverishly of things that never happened and relies more and more heavily on his son as a provider. An example of this would be when Wiesel discovers his father in his bed, crying that his neighbors were beating…

    Throughout The Crucible, there were a plethora of rhetorical elements used in order to convey the multiple themes that could be interpreted from the storyline. John Proctor, a character in The Crucible, shows common rhetorical tools through his dialogue in the story. The most notable examples are ethos and pathos. The way he uses both of these tools play on each other in the storyline. While contemplating the storyline, ethos and pathos stood out to me the most compared to other rhetorical tools used in The Crucible.…

    In this passage, Richard Louv states that modern Americans still continue to lose what little contact they have with nature as time goes on, and this trend needs to stop. In order to persuade his intended audience, current adults who grew up in his generation, Louv speaks to them on their own terms by using emotional appeals. Specifically, Louv uses rhetorical questions that cause readers to fully reevaluate their stances on the matter, specific diction that evokes strong emotional responses, and anecdotes that most parents or generation X-ers can agree with. Louv’s rhetorical questions truly involve the audience in a meaningful way. It is nearly impossible to change someone’s mind without first asking him or her to evaluate his or her lifestyle from a different angle.…

    For the first section of the book, Frankl gives a valid argument. He explains each stage thoroughly, and not only gives examples of his fellow prisoners, but things he saw in himself. The images he gave were vivid and helped get his point across, for if the reader could not understand how vulgar the camps were, they would not understand the extent of their psychological reaction. Describing things such as the work, the beatings, and the conditions in which they lived, help us have a greater understanding of how incredible it was. Even now people look back and wonder how a human being could possibly handle it.…

    when she is told that Funtown is closed to colored children, and see the depressing clouds of inferiority begin to form in her little mental sky, and see her distort her little personality by unconsciously developing a bitterness toward white people(265) King is simply putting segregation in the eyes of a child and showing the audience how it’s tearing the younger generation apart by teaching them how to hate those who are different from them. Through this scene the audience feels the complication and shame the father feels for his innocent daughter suffering consequences she has no right to receiving for just being herself. King goes into more depth of the struggle of being black by writing “When you take a cross country drive and find it…

    Martin Luther King Jr. uses many rhetorical strategies in his letter to Birmingham. While reading the letter I noticed he enjoys to show his knowledge of historical features and names mentioned in the Bible. King starts off the letter (paragraph 2) with who he is and why he is in Birmingham. He then gives the comment that he is apart of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, showing he is a christian and later on finding out he is a minister.…

    Furthermore, as the witch hunt draws to a finale in Act 4, it is seen how the dangers of hysteria are largely that many lives can be lost from a hysterical situation, and it is extremely difficult to stop the situation. At this point, John Proctor is set to be hanged in the morning and Danforth as well as Harris want John Proctor to lie to save himself from the hanging, and enlists Elizabeth to talk Proctor into lying. This attempt at her appeal to him was supposed to be a sentimental appeal, as if Proctor was to listen to anyone, it would be Elizabeth. Yet Proctor refuses when he realizes he would have to have a public record of his partaking in naming names ( ). He choses to not continue the string of naming names, and to instead face death.…

In McPherson’s book, he refers to the economic environment of the South as being a slave reliant one in which it greatly depended on its predominantly agriculture and plantation systems, while the North focused more on equality and the rights of the people.

    The article “Miscalculation on Visas Disrupts Lives of Highly Skilled Immigrants” (2015), by Julia Preston, states the State Department and Homeland Security allowed the department to give anticipating immigrants news of them being able to take the next step to obtain a green card. The author provides background information about the situation, along with reasons as to why the incident occurred, and its impact on immigrants. Preston attempts to inform about the episode and provide an explanation to the immigrants involved, through the use of rhetorical appeals. Preston establishes ethos before the article starts, as she is a reporter of a reputable newspaper, which gives her credibility. She starts off her article powerfully by providing context for those who are unaware of the situation; in the beginning of September, the State Department told thousands of highly skilled legal immigrants that they “would be able to advance early to the next step: filing a formal application.”…

    President, I commend you on these matters, and I am not asking for retribution on this matter. I am asking for further, and harsher enforcement on these matters. Don’t be afraid to get tougher, the statistics show it can only get better from here.

    English composition was never my strong nor favorite because of my knowledge of the grammar and organization in my writing. Taking English 101 is a jump start for me, because last year of high school my teacher focused primarily on English literature. The course has introduced me to rhetorical analysis, and swatching (imitating author argument). Throughout the semester and all of the papers written I can say that it was a good experience to write at a college level and the expectation from college professors is good for future courses that involve writing essays.…
